Objective
This study aims to use reflective theory and critical emancipatory theory to explore nurses’ communicative role with unsatisfied clients.
Methods
This paper begins with the broad issue, and the analysis will engage Smyth’s cycle, which includes describing, analyzing, exploring, and reconstructing.
Results
Critical emancipatory reflection is essential to make changes in the professional practice of nursing, because it is of primary importance for the professional learning and development of a nurse.
Conclusions
Critical emancipatory reflection helps a nurse to analyze the constraints, including historical, sociocultural, political, and personal aspects.
